COPPER Freshly exposed copper surface has a pinkish or peachy color. Because it tarnishes rather quickly, our copper collection is coated with varnish or wax to delay this reaction. Jewelry that has not been waxed, varnished, or patina may be easily cleaned with a variety of household products cleaning agents (i.e., Tarnex). It is best to store silver, copper and nu-gold in plastic bags to inhibit tarnish.
